Lehmstrom

Lehmstrom is a vintage and antiques business based in Barsingerhorn, in Hollands Kroon, continuing a passion for distinctive objects developed over 20 years. The business searches for and sells unusual antique, vintage and contemporary finds, including old toys, well-loved furniture, distinctive household items, records, computer games and guitars. Its inventory is offered mainly through online marketplaces such as Marktplaats, Catawiki, Vinted and eBay, as well as Facebook and Instagram. Lehmstrom also serves businesses and public institutions seeking art or specific items.

Services include fair, realistic valuations, informed by the owners’ antiques training and experience, and a personal search service for customers looking for a missing collection piece or a treasured item from their past. Lehmstrom says it has a 90 percent success rate for these searches within the customer’s budget. Items are generally shipped or delivered; the Barsingerhorn warehouse opens periodically for special viewing and sales days. The business also attends markets and fairs in North Holland.
